10 Utility Business Review Regulatory Update Long history of constructive regulatory and legislative environment Vectren’s 7-yr. gas infrastructure investment plan has been approved by the Commission; rate case likely filed at end of plan (2020) As of Oct. 2015 filing, 7-yr. plan now totals ~$1B; awaiting order as part of semi-annual review process Gas Utilities - Indiana Evaluation of EPA rules and resulting generation-related investment is underway; expect additional cap ex would be recoverable under SB251/29 in the mid- to long-term MATS/NOV project: MATS portion approved, ~$35M; due to appeal, awaiting approval of NOV portion, ~$40M Electric Utility - Indiana Regulatory/legislative environment continues to be very supportive of gas infrastructure investment Next rate case likely filed in late 2017 or early 2018 when the current five-year extension of the distribution replacement rider mechanism ends Gas Utility - Ohio Vectren Energy Delivery of Indiana – North (gas only) Vectren Energy Delivery of Indiana – South (gas & electric) Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio (gas only) OH IN

Early 2016 IRP Modeling Work Begins IRP Process Overview Indiana electric utilities submit IRP’s every 2 years Indiana Commission reviews IRP’s (doesn’t approve or reject) Performed in order to promote reliability throughout the state Complexities of our 2016 IRP Uncertainty around significant regulations – water, ash, carbon A large customer (SABIC) is moving to partial self-generation; a large employer (Alcoa; self-generates) is restructuring operations Supportive Mechanisms Substantial additional cap ex likely in mid- to long-term; recovery expected via existing mechanisms such as SB251
12 Utility Business Review Initial Thoughts on Bonus Depreciation Extension Dec. 2015: bonus depreciation extended for 5 years (’15-’19) Bonus depreciation rule is 50% for property placed in service in 2015-2017, 40% in 2018, and 30% in 2019 Background Ongoing analysis includes: impact on customer rates; accelerated or incremental investment opportunities; balance sheet strength We currently expect to use incremental cash (~$225M thru ‘19) from accelerated deduction to delay planned financing associated with current cap ex plans; modestly EPS positive (less interest) Initial Viewpoint Continue to analyze potential impact, including cap ex needs related to our significant gas infrastructure investments and potential increased electric cap ex driven by regulations Higher gas and/or electric cap ex could drive reconsideration of use of cash available from bonus depreciation election Next Steps

General Description of Types of Customer Contracts for Infrastructure Services • Infrastructure Services operates primarily under two types of contracts – blanket contracts and bid contracts. Blanket contracts are ones which a customer is not committed to specific volumes of services, but where we have been or expect to be chosen to perform work needed by a customer in a given time frame (typically awarded on a yearly basis). Bid contracts are ones which a customer will commit to a specific service to be performed for a specific price, whether in total for a project or on a per unit basis (e.g., per dig or per foot). General Description of Backlog for Infrastructure Services • For blanket work, backlog represents an estimate of the amount of gross revenue that we expect to realize from work to be performed in the next 12 months on existing contracts or contracts we reasonably expect to be renewed or awarded based upon recent history or discussions with customers. • For bid work, backlog represents the value remaining on contracts awarded or that we reasonably expect to be awarded, but are not yet completed. • While there is a reasonable basis to estimate backlog, there can be no assurance as to our customers’ eventual demand for our services each year or, therefore, the accuracy of our estimate of backlog. Backlog for Infrastructure Services estimated as follows: • For blanket work, estimated backlog as of 12/31/15 is $475 million. The estimate of the amount of gross revenue that we expect to realize from work to be performed in the next 12 months is multiplied by 80% to factor in such unknowns as weather and potential budgetary restrictions of customers. • For bid work, estimated backlog as of 12/31/15 is $190 million. • Total estimated backlog as of 12/31/15: $665 million compared to $635 million at 9/30/15 29 Infrastructure Services Estimated Backlog Appendix

The following table reconciles consolidated net income, consolidated basic EPS, and Nonutility Group net income (loss) to those results excluding Coal Mining results in 2014 and ProLiance results in 2013, the respective years of disposition. Note that the Coal Mining and ProLiance results that are excluded below include corporate allocated expenses. Please refer to the following slide for further details regarding the company’s use of Non-GAAP measures.

32 Results Excluding Coal Mining and ProLiance Management uses consolidated net income, consolidated earnings per share, and Nonutility Group net income (loss), excluding the results from Coal Mining in 2014 and ProLiance in 2013, to evaluate its results. Coal Mining and ProLiance results that are excluded from the GAAP measures are inclusive of holding company costs (corporate allocations, interest and taxes). Management believes analyzing underlying and ongoing business trends is aided by the removal of Coal Mining and ProLiance results and the rationale for using such non-GAAP measures is that the Company has now exited the coal mining and gas marketing businesses. Management believes this presentation provides the best representation of the overall results of the ongoing operations. A material limitation associated with the use of these measures is that measures excluding Coal Mining and ProLiance results do not include all costs recognized in accordance with GAAP. Management compensates for this limitation by prominently displaying a reconciliation of these non-GAAP performance measures to their closest GAAP performance measures. This display also provides financial statement users the option of analyzing results as management does or by analyzing GAAP results. Contribution to Vectren's basic EPS Per share earnings contributions of the Utility Group, Nonutility Group excluding Coal Mining results in 2014 and ProLiance results in 2013, and Corporate and Other are presented and are non-GAAP measures. Such per share amounts are based on the earnings contribution of each group included in the Company’s consolidated results divided by the Company’s basic average shares outstanding during the period. The earnings per share of the groups do not represent a direct legal interest in the assets and liabilities allocated to the groups; instead they represent a direct equity interest in the Company's assets and liabilities as a whole. These non-GAAP measures are used by management to evaluate the performance of individual businesses. In addition, other items giving rise to period over period variances, such as weather, may be presented on an after tax and per share basis. These amounts are calculated at a statutory tax rate divided by the Company’s basic average shares outstanding during the period. Accordingly, management believes these measures are useful to investors in understanding each business’ contribution to consolidated earnings per share and in analyzing consolidated period to period changes and the potential for earnings per share contributions in future periods. Per share amounts of the Utility Group and the Nonutility Group are reconciled to the GAAP financial measure of basic EPS by combining the two. Any resulting differences are attributable to results from Corporate and Other operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP.
